Overview

Hamlet was a minotaur, Jay Gatsby was a dog, and Tea Cake was a manic pixie dream girl. Surprised? Revisit classic literature in a decidedly non-classical multi-disciplinary way with Mr. Dame's literature class. The core literature which is covered in this book includes: Hamlet (Shakespeare), The Great Gatsby (Fitzgerald), The Lovesong of J Alfred Prufrock (Eliot), Their Eyes Were Watching God (Hurston), 1984 (Orwell), The Stranger (Camus), and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead (Stoppard). It gets analyzed and remixed with economics, politics, philosophy, other literature, sociology, theology, mythology, depth psychology, and a bit of world travel just for fun. See how much is going on between those pages with Mr. Dame Among the Pages.
